When we're prepared to "cancel" people for even the slightest transgression, no matter how long ago, it seems like appearing in black face (with the obvious exception of military members use of black camo), would be high on the list of sins to be called out.
Yet, it's surprising that there are quite a few "get out of jail free" cards out there as well. People and institutions that don't seem to get people as upset as others do.

Of course, we're seeing certain universities get a pass from the mobs despite being named for racists and slave traders, and let's not ignore the two large non profit organizations founded by racists. Racists who's avowed purpose was to rid the world of blacks (and others), and who's names are still attached to awards given to people like Hillary Clinton.
Double standard, or not.
